It is inevitable :lolinb4 "i won't buy it until its 49.99"
Wow. I would buy one at that price. Works out at about £80 which is the same price as a Wii Mini!
If nobody wants it at 200, it's probably not too cheap.
It'll hopefully happen in the Netherlands as well, at one point.
But that better be Mediamarkt Eindhoven or Mediamarkt Arnhem, because I can pull a few strings there to keep one behind the counter for me.
You`re right. So 150€ then?
(That's 200€ less than what Nintendo wanted at launch, wow. They really have to rethink some stuff for the next generation.)
The fabled £70-£80 Argos Gamecube bomba price! It has begun. Wonder if any UK retailers these days will ever drop it this low and firesale though.
Anyone else think/feel that 99 sounds "too cheap", compared to what the machine offers? (Which should be a good sign.) I'm pretty sure the answers to this question can vary wildly depending by whether you already own the system or not.
(Nintendo's communication problem right here.)

There is no such thing as "too cheap".
MM Hasselt isn't the only one open today, gonna try my luck in the local MM and claim its a nationwide thing lawlz.
You just realize that the price wasn't the problem in the first place.
People who were interested in Nintendo first party and the few exclusive third party games bought the system already.
But the low price doesn't change the fact that the console doesn't really deliever anything for the non-Nintendo fanbase.
Dick Smith wasn't generous enough. Wii U would need to be $100 Australian dollars before i even think of getting one considering i want it for 3 games (one of which isn't out yet)
The ones in Germany are. I can go to the counter with a preordrr rrceipt and say pre order means I get it begore release date, and that worked already like 6 times and I got a game a week earlier.MediaMarkt isn't that stupid.

Sadly I thought the same thing. 214 was still too much for a premium Wii u, I regretted not getting one for a short period when 3d world came out, but now I'm happy I didn't get one. (I'm just gonna cry when Zelda comes out though...).

The price is always the problem in the free market economy.
empty words.
The fact that the WiiU doesn't sell even after the price drops means that the console lacks interesting content.
The Wii was >200% more expensive than the GameCube and it sold like hot cakes although the main difference was just a controller with a cheap motion sensor.
They were 50% off RRP, so $214 and $174. Not as good as the NZ price, but still pretty good.
Wiiu has worse games then the GC IMO. No re4, no metroid prime, no REmake. Not worth the 100 euros the charge for it
That's Economic Science. (Which I think you're right, can be pretty empty words sometimes.)
You sound like someone stuck in the past. Let go of the classics and give new games a chance. ZombiU fills the horror slot on Wii U.
Shocked by this deal, can't they just send those back to Nintendo.
Funny that you say that. Remember the negative sales for Wii U in Europe?
Well, this is the internet after all.
Reading the ad. It's a deal for ONE day only. With limited stock.
Only in Media markt Hasselt and only one Wii-u per customer.
To confirm: I just looked op the Wii-u on the belgian Media Markt site.
It's still 254,70 on there. Didn't see any deals either.

In what other market do you have to pay a high price, just so you can buy software from the same people.
Every single other hardware/software market? New iPhone costs, new PC costs, and so on. Fortunately for video and music, theyre always a known and set format that doesnt require ever escalating chipsets to facilitate. Games and software are a unique medium because of this.
Apparently they only had like 20 or 30 units hidden under PS3 and 360 consoles lol.
